Forks in the road have played a major role in my life, unalterably changing my direction. I suspect they've had a major impact on many of us. Camp Codger recently took on this topic. Have a listen -- https://t.co/jCJbyNSGiB

RT @billritter7: a new knee. Titanium man. Walking. Icing. Stretching. Sleeping. Thanks to those who offered your experiences and advice…

Randy was tough, direct, but soft inside. A great mentor to a generation of developing journalists. And loyal…

Such a sad day for the @latimes and the journalism world as a whole. RIP Randy. Randy Hagihara, former Times editor who mentored young journalists, dies at 72 https://t.co/FAEb8WPEvh

Problem is, Chicago is not even on the list for World Cup games. A mistake? Yes. But how weird to have the parade where locals haven’t had access to even one live game!

@loyal_cityzen @USMNTOtaku That’s a good point. I remember being at soldier field for the MLS All-Star Game back in 2017 and the place was filled with Mexican fans pulling for Real Madrid. Again, the romantic in me says Columbus… I just don’t think USSF will have the sensibility (though I hope they would)

This is greatly deserved. What a steady hand Steve has. Congrats to him!

Couldn't be happier to see one of my favorite old editors make a soft landing on the masthead. No one deserves it more than @steveclowLA: https://t.co/VfiyVZA3SW

Michael Parks founded the USC Center for Health Reporting in 2009. For the past 12 years, the Center has collaborated with news media organizations large and small to tell readers and listeners of health policy issues facing California residents. His leadership will be missed.

Michael Parks, esteemed former director of the School of Journalism & former editor of the @latimes, died on Jan. 8. The Pulitzer Prize winner devoted the last two decades of his life to training, mentoring & inspiring the next generation of journalists. https://t.co/qkhlhnaXzQ

Michael Parks established the USC Center for Health Reporting in 2009. Now in its 13th year, the Center has collaborated with more than 50 California news media organizations to produce in-depth stories about health issues impacting residents. It was all Michael’s idea.
